Longview Drive Playground

For a toddler playground, the zipline here is a bit of a surprise — it’s definitely the main event and not something you’d expect to find at a spot geared toward little ones. The equipment itself is a step above the usual cookie-cutter stuff you see around the region, which makes it worth the trip to this quiet Lake Hāwea street. Slides keep the younger kids happy while the older siblings fight over the flying fox. There’s a cafe nearby too, so the grown-ups aren’t exactly suffering while the kids run it out.
